It's somewhat similar to Dolly Parton's image as a dumb blonde. Yet Dolly, a brilliant songwriter, musician and business woman is neither dumb...nor blonde.

Translated into Laura: This idea is made of super mingled with a currently popular movie star!
Translated into Sarah: This American post makes me a-think about a bag o' possums scramblin' like a jittery Democrat, dipped in healthy moose-covered James McAvoy, you betcha!
Translated into Lindsey: All you nice Jezebel women, this post is made of awesomesauce dipped in James McAvoy, or so you whores would like me to think?
Translated into Ann: This post is made of awesomesauce dipped in James McAvoy, who, as a disgusting foreigner, is responsible for Hitler killing the Jews.

Also the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog is my favorite sentence of all time.
PS: Can we get one with prominent Democrats? Obama, Biden, Keith Olberman, Rachel Maddow?

This, Sir Gingrich, is not the way to un-call someone a racist. "She might not be racist, but she says racist things! More than once!"
Time for a look in the mirror.

It's only Monday and my head already hurts from figuratively banging it on the desk.

(1) You are creating an uproar, if you hadn't noticed.
(2) White male is a status that is extremely powerful, as opposed to Latina. There is a world of difference between the life of a white male w/r/t discrimination than the life of a woman of color. However, and this should come as no surprise, I recently read a book on the attitudes of white evangelicals toward the question of race and they almost uniformly declared that the only reason there is a race problem is because "I think we make it a problem," and "if you don't think there is enough diversity where you live, then there is no one forcing you to live here," and the reason a black household has ZERO PERCENT of the net financial assets of a white household (net financial assets: all assets minus all debts minus equity accrued in a home or vehicle): zero dollars compared to 7,000 dollars* has everything to do with personal ambition and nothing to do with any structural factors. So, there's that. AHHHHHHHHHHHH.

Her "speech" that was actually just paraphrasing a single 4-year-old article really drives that point home. She's like a college freshman who badgered her way into a high-level writing course where she is seriously, seriously not up to par but THINKS she's up to par.
